New Mexico has two very big national labs. Los Alamos National Labs, and Sandia National Labs.
LANL was founded by Oppenheimer. They still do mostly "energy" work, but a ton of materials, chemistry, and weapons research.
SNL does mostly weapons, satellites, and uh... alien tech, we'll say.
Both labs employ a lot of Germans. They're efficient and good at science.
There are also a lot of companies that work with the laboratories, not to mention Intel and others involved in computational component manufacturing and design. The state got a lot of CHIPs act finding. So, yeah, New Mexico has a lot of hard science opportunities, and Germans tend to like hard sciences.
